Chapter 430: Win or lose

Views:

It is definitely not an easy task to prepare all three thousand capital ships and complete coordination. Even in ideal conditions, it takes a lot of time.

However, Kutum had no choice but to wait patiently.

In the space battlefield, especially in the battle of the fleet, no matter how powerful the existence is, it does not matter much. It is the battleships in the fleet that decides the victory or defeat.

In fact, this is exactly the shortcoming of the Silicon Magic Alliance.

Although in the first five Greenwich Wars, the Silicon Magic Alliance had the initiative, even in the Fifth Greenwich War, the Silicon Magic Alliance only lost the fruits of victory and did not suffer a serious blow. The alliance does not rely on the fleet, but on the powerful combat power of silicon-based life, a more efficient organization and command system, and the battlefield initiative obtained through active offensive.

On the contrary, the failures suffered by the Silicon Magic Alliance in the previous five Greenwich Wars are all related to the fleet.

This is, the battleships of the Silicon Magic Alliance, especially the battleships of the Battleship, are far less powerful than the Galaxy Alliance, and it is difficult to gain an advantage in the space battlefield.

Simply put, this is a technical problem.

It can be said that the biggest advantage of the Galaxy Alliance is technology. Although the Galactic Alliance suffered heavy losses in the past five Greenwich Wars and was extremely passive at the beginning of the war, it was able to reverse the battlefield every time with its technological advantages. In the space battlefield, the technological advantages of the Galaxy Alliance are more obvious, and the most direct manifestation is that the warships of the Galaxy Alliance have stronger combat effectiveness.

For warships of the same level, the combat effectiveness of the Silicon Charm Alliance is only about half of that of the Galactic Alliance.

Not to mention that compared with top civilizations like the Star Weavers, even compared with the Human Federation, the battleships of the Silicon Magic Alliance have a big gap in combat effectiveness.

In fact, this is also one of the main reasons why Kutum did not attack the homeland galaxy.

Although limited by civilization levels, the Human Federation has only nine SSS-class warships in total, but there are hundreds of SS-class warships and more S-class warships. Besides, after the outbreak of war, all restrictions will be automatically invalidated, and the Human Federation will be able to build more capital ships. Of course, the construction period of capital ships is very long, and the human federation is only a sixth-class civilization. Even if the war mobilization has been completed, it is difficult to build enough capital ships in a short period of time. The problem is that at the beginning of the war, Kutum's mobilization of troops was not sufficient. When he finished mobilizing, the main force of the Human Federation all retreated to the homeland galaxy. Based on the performance of the Human Federation in the previous wars, as long as the existing forces are reasonably used, with the cooperation of the fleet, the time to complete the war mobilization can definitely be won. If Kutum invested too much force in the operation of attacking the homeland galaxy and suffered heavy losses, then when other civilizations of the Galactic Alliance participated in the war, I am afraid that there would be no soldiers available. Combining these factors, Kutum did not storm the homeland galaxy.

This shows that the combat effectiveness of the fleet is a key factor affecting Kutum.

In fact, several top warlords in the Silicon Magic Alliance, including Kutum, know that if they cannot defeat the Galactic Alliance on the space battlefield, no matter how big the victory is in the early stages of the war, they will not be able to last for long, and they will definitely lose because of the end. The fleet decisive battle became a fuss.

In other words, as long as it can win the decisive battle of the fleet, the Silicon Magic Alliance can win the final victory, and even completely eliminate the Galactic Alliance.

The question is, how can we win the battle of the fleet

You know, on the battlefield where thousands or even hundreds of thousands of warships are facing each other, no matter how powerful the existence is, even the existence of the Emperor of War is not worth mentioning. It can be said that the decisive battle of the fleet considers the strength of the fleet, and what determines the strength of the fleet is the comprehensive strength including technology. Although the Silicon Magic Alliance has decisive advantages in some aspects, it has no advantage in the crucial technology field.

Obviously, it is almost impossible to catch up with the Galaxy Alliance in the field of technology.

It is not that Kutum has no confidence, but that the nature of the two life forms determines that it is difficult for silicon-based life to surpass carbon-based life in wisdom.

Of course, silicon-based life is not without its advantages.

Relatively speaking, the vitality of silicon-based life is stronger, and it is easier to organize and command, and the ability to coordinate operations is significantly stronger.

Since it is impossible to make up for the short version of technology, the top warlords, including Kutum, can only think of ways in the field of advantage.

If you can't fight heads-up, then fight for the fighting power of the group.

Obviously, this is where the advantage of the Silicon Magic Alliance lies.

Among other things, the Silicon Charm battleship was originally a silicon beast, which was cultivated, not built, so the production of the Silicon Charm battleship is faster and less expensive. When necessary, it can even use the occupied planets to train thousands of warships at the same time. The method is very simple. Put the matrix, that is, the larvae of the silicon beast, into the crust of the planet, and let it develop and grow by using the heat inside the planet. During this period, only need to control the growth mode and growth rate, then it will not take long to become a huge battleship. The battleships of the Galactic Alliance are constructed of various materials, which not only consume more resources, but also have a longer construction period.

Quantity is always the advantage of Silicon Magic Alliance.

Kutum was able to mobilize thousands of capital ships at the beginning of the war, but he was just a top-tier warlord, and his status, ability, and influence were not comparable to the Star Soul Queen, while the Star Weavers only mobilized a thousand at the beginning of the war. A battleship, the difference in numbers between the two sides is evident.

However, only a quantitative advantage cannot bring victory.

Quite simply, no matter how many warships there are, if they can't cooperate in combat and can't give full play to their numerical advantages, they will certainly not be able to defeat a powerful opponent.

To bring out the advantages in quantity, collaboration is the key.

In fact, this is the only effective way.

After the end of the Fifth Greenwich War, Kutum and other top warlords summarized the fiasco they suffered and reached many conclusions, which can also be regarded as lessons learned. Among them, the most critical point is that after the Galactic Alliance launched a counterattack, the Silicon Magic Alliance is still a mess. Not to mention the cooperation between the kings of war, even in the fleet decisive battle, there is little effective cooperation. As a result, while still having the advantage of military strength, the Silicon Magic Alliance suffered the worst and most serious failure in its history. Because of the loss of the ability to fight in space, even if a large number of legions are formed, there is no way to turn the tide of the battle, and eventually they have to sign an armistice treaty with the Galactic Alliance.

In order to defeat the main fleet of the Galactic Alliance, in the next thousand years, all the top warlords, including Kutum, tried their best and thought of many ways. However, there is only one effective way to move forward, that is, to maximize the advantages of the number of warships, and to improve the combat effectiveness of the fleet through coordination, so as to achieve the goal of determining the universe in one fell swoop and defeating the enemy in one fell swoop.

Of course, Kutum and other top warlords not only thought of countermeasures, but also found effective methods.

This is to use a certain method to concentrate the attack power of all capital ships and launch an attack that is enough to destroy a main force fleet.

Just one attack can determine the outcome of the fleet battle.

It can be said that this is the hope of the Silicon Charm Alliance and Kutum's secret weapon.

In theory, countless capital ships can jointly launch an attack. However, in the specific operation, it has to be determined by the strength of the battleship responsible for the alliance. This time, Kutum’s flagship is responsible for the alliance, and it is also the most powerful warship in this fleet. There are only 3,000 capital ships in the fleet, and Kutum’s flagship can unite up to 10,000 capital ships, so it is not a big problem.

All Kutum needs is time.

This method of attack requires that all warships that are jointly launching an attack be prepared, and then at the same time the warship responsible for the combination is guided to launch an attack on the enemy's fleet. At this point in time, in addition to the battleship responsible for guiding, there are also the synchronization ratios of other battleships. If the synchronization ratio is not enough, even if only a few battleships fail to synchronize, the attack will be affected or even completely failed.

Although in theory, Kutum can control tens of thousands of capital ships to launch attacks at the same time, it is obviously much more difficult to operate in actual combat. The key is not Kutum’s control, but whether other warships can be prepared in time. Kutum obviously cannot directly control three thousand battleships.

As time passed, the battle ahead was still going on, but Kutum was a little anxious.

The synchronization rate has never been less than 90%, and according to Kutum's calculations, if you want to defeat the Star Weaver fleet in one fell swoop, the synchronization rate needs to be at least 95%. Launching an attack with a synchronization rate of less than 90% not only fails to defeat the powerful Star Weaver fleet, but also consumes too much energy in the attack and is difficult to replenish in time, causing the entire fleet to lose its combat effectiveness and become beaten. situation. Even if only a few battleships of the Star Weavers were not destroyed, it was enough to achieve a decisive victory before the Simei fleet regained its combat effectiveness. At that time, even if Kutum was able to escape, he would also lose the entire fleet, thus losing the cost of winning the war.

There is only one chance, and either win or lose, Kutum dare not mess around.

The problem is that the Star Weaver fleet can't stand still, and will continue to advance after defeating the forward fleet sent by Kutum.

At that time, Kutum had no choice at all.

Fighting in a conventional way, none of the 3,000 capital ships in Kutum's hands are necessarily the opponents of the 1,000 star-weaver clan capital ships.

Obviously, Kutum didn't want to lose and couldn't afford to lose.

The current front fleet began to retreat, and more and more medium-sized warships were destroyed during the retreat. Kutum knew that he had to make a decision.

Even if launching an attack with a synchronization rate of less than 90% is equivalent to gambling, if it is delayed, there will be no chance of gambling.

Besides, even if it retreats with the fleet now, the result will not be different. It is not just the Gorn galaxy that is lost, but also the initiative on the battlefield. Kutum knows very well that with the first retreat, there will be a second. Last time, the Silicon Charm army retreated all the way back to the Northern Alpha Galaxy.

Seeing that the forward fleet was defeated, Kutum did not delay.

Win or lose, in one fell swoop.
